The Sister Spotlight March 2012

This sister was born and raised in Missoula, Montana. She graduated from Sentinel High School. She was a middle child with 4 sisters and 2 brothers. As a teenager she had an LDS friend who invited her to mutual and introduced her to the church. Utah Technical College in Orem, Utah was where she majored in Fashion Merchandising. While back home for the summer, she met her “would be husband” on a blind date. They were married after she did another year of schooling. She worked with a friend in Orem who she would talk to about the church, and had some roommates who were also good influences on her. Although raised a Catholic, she was converted and baptized into the LDS church. She and her husband settled in Stevensville and had 5 children together (2 girls and 3 boys.) Her husband passed away after a car accident in ‘83. She has worked in the Stevensville schools since, now as a paraprofessional working with special needs children. She loves to sew, work on crafts, make jewelry, garden, and play with her 9 grandchildren in her spare time. She has some Salish Native American in her heritage. She has served in callings in all the auxiliaries of the church, currently in the nursery. She’s such a great part of our ward! Who is she? Click on the comments below to find out.
